A Short History of the World in 50 Lies is a pocket-sized book that is light and quite suitable to read during commutes. It is also a good way to encourage readers to be interested in history through bite-sized snippets of parts of historical happenings that are deemed 'lies'.
This book is written in an easily understood manner and can be an engaging read, as each 'lie' is only a few pages.
It is however, also not a book written in the scholarly fashion, in that claims of what the author has introduced as 'truths' in relation to the 'lies' are also not referenced to.
